🏠 From: London, UK

✈️ To: Budapest, Hungary

It’s something that any mum can relate to. I had a baby and things weren’t quite where they were supposed to be. So I did something about it.

Can't afford? Look abroad!

I started to look into the price of breast implants and breast lift in the UK and the lowest price I found was around £8,000 – which I just couldn’t afford. Having worked for a number of years in the travel industry, I knew all about the growth of medical tourism but the idea of actually going abroad for surgery had never crossed my mind.

After a bit of research into my options abroad I came across MEDIGO. Their website and service looked professional so I made an inquiry. The MEDIGO team were quick to respond and took my concerns seriously, and they also recommended Dr Molnar’s clinic in Budapest. I still wasn’t 100% sure, but I read that Hungary has really good surgeons and did my research. MEDIGO were really good and made me confident in choosing Dr. Molnar.

The facilities were great

When I got there and met Dr Molnar he made me feel really comfortable. The facilities were absolutely five-star and I stayed at a hotel next door, making it easy to get between my room and the clinic. It surpassed all my expectations. Dr Molnar even came to my hotel to check if I needed anything.

The other staff were really lovely, I can’t fault them. They all spoke good English and I could communicate well with them. I honestly think I was treated better than I would have been back home.

The recovery

I felt pretty tired in the days after surgery and wasn’t able to do too much sightseeing, but Budapest is a beautiful city which I would recommend to anyone. I thought about going to Hungary alone, but in the end I took my partner with me and I’m very glad I did. Without somebody there with me I would have struggled to get through the first days of my recovery.

Above all, my biggest piece of advice for anyone going for plastic surgery is to take a friend or partner with you. Make sure you’ve done your research and prepare yourself for after the surgery.

The results

As for the results, I couldn’t be happier. Initially I was only going for a breast lift, but after the consultation with Dr Molnar he suggested that implants would give me the best chance of achieving the results I wanted. I was always a bit of a worrier but I’m actually very glad I went through with it. It was a fraction of the cost of what I would pay in the UK and the standard was just as good, if not better.

Overall, I was very happy with the outcome of my surgery and I’m not ruling out some more plastic surgery in the future. Whatever I decide to go for next, I’d definitely go through MEDIGO again.
